That really throws a spanner into the works for Dundalk aswell.Originally Posted by SeniorBlue
There was plenty going around saying that Stephen Kenny is all but confirmed for the Dundalk job, now with Limerick having a vacant managers job he could be tempted there if Limerick are interested. There is a couple of people on Twitter saying that this could happen.
But as we all know don't believe anything in this league until it is confirmed.
Just confirmed now on local radio scully has been sacked.
All aboard the Sean Connor bandwagon rolling into Limerick. He'll survive though, after all he's from West Belfast, which he has stated on numerous occasions
Surprised by that to be honest. Think he had a year left to go on his contract but it was mentioned during the summer it would cost nothing to get rid of him.
I suppose he is walking away at a good time for himself. He promised to get us up in a 4 year plan so he can walk away now saying he did his job.
Please bring back the Rodster
It has high profile name written all over it. Kenny Cunningham is my guess.

We wont have much by prem standard im afraid.
We dont have the money to compete believe it or not.
Early front runners for the Limerick job:
Pat Dolan, Paul Ince, Liam Buckley, Paul Cook, Kenny Cunningham, Walter Smith, Eamon Cregan, Damien Richardson, Trevor Croly, John Aldridge, Michael O'Neill, Brian Kerr, Craig Levein, Kevin Blackwell, Alan Kernaghan and Jackie McNamara.
You left out Tony Cousins. He won't come cheap, mind.
Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

LIMERICK FC have this Thursday afternoon parted ways with manager Pat Scully.
Confirmation of the shock move came following a meeting of the board of the senior soccer club this morning.
However, details of the surprise move remain unclear. Pat Scully confirmed to Leader Sport that he has parted ways with the club, but refused to comment further.
The development comes just weeks after Scully guided the Super Blues back into the top flight of the Airtricty League.
Two weeks ago, assistant manager Mark Dempsey also parted company with the club.
Scully was appointed Limerick FC manager in March 2009 and in September 2011 his contract was extended by two years.
Last month, Scully’s Limerick FC were crowned First Division champions.
Earlier this weeks, Limerick’s Rory Gaffeny was named as Player of the Year at the PFAI awards.
Limerick FC also dominated the division’s 2012 Team of the Year, with five representatives - captain Pat Purcell, Shane Tracy, Joe Gamble, Stephen Bradley, and Rory Gaffney.
The departure of Scully and Dempsey comes as speculation continues regarding Limerick’s home ground for the 2013 season.
It is understood that the club are in discussions with Thomond Park as Jackman Park required much investment to meet licensing requirements for the Premier Division.
Limerick are to return to the Markets Field, but that now appears unlikely to happen in time for the start of the new season next spring.
Please let it be Roddy who gets the job.
We need Roddy back in the League, if only for his post-match interviews/sing-alongs on MNS.
I heard a few weeks back that Scully was going to go and Declan Farmer was going to take over, don't see the sense in that and doubt it will happen but seeing as it is the rumour thread said I'd post it.
Shane McFaul is on his way back to League of Ireland football according to LOI Blog.

Club won't be talking to anyone till after Christmas though.
To us, seemingly. Bermo and Sean O'Connor to Sham Rovers according to our forum.
Out for a spell, got neglected, lay on the bench unselected.
Sean O Connor moving would be a surprise, he seems to have settled in at St.Pats this season and the football style suits him too.
Money and 2 year contracts talk.
Here on a technicality.
I would be delighted with Sean O'Connor. Bermingham too but that was expected, O'Connor is a bonus.
Stephen McLaughlin is going to Nottingham Forest for a trial.
I don't expect him to be with us next season. If anything, bit surprised he hasn't gone across the water already.
